Oscar Isaac improvised some of the funniest lines in ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens'

"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" not only warmed the hearts of fans
and critics alike, for many it was an introduction
to acclaimed actor Oscar Isaac, who stars in the film as
pilot Poe Dameron.

Isaac's reception following the film's release was enough to earn
him the cover of Rolling Stone magazine this
month and the title of "the internet's boyfriend." In his
interview, the Guatemalan-born actor explained his role in
bringing the daring pilot to life.

Early drafts of "The Force
Awakens" originally killed Poe off in the film's
opening act, following his botched mission in Jakku. Re-writing
the script so that Poe survived until the end credits meant many
of his lines were added during reshoots in post production.
As Isaac revealed to the magazine, he improvised some of
them.

"We're making s--- up as
we go," he joked to the magazine.

Isaac revealed one of the improvised lines occurs when Poe is captured and brought
to Kylo Ren (Adam Driver). He's not intimidated by the robed
figure in black. Instead he asks him, "So who talks first? You
talk first?" It was lighthearted and disarming and one of the
reasons his small role earned him so much attention after the
film was out.

And while Poe was
originally written with a minor role, Isaac revealed he has
a long future with the franchise.

"It's the first time in my life when things
have been mapped out for quite some time," said Isaac. "I'm
basically Star War-ring until 2020."
